模塊6U2 一、閱讀理解。 閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。 Whenever we see a button，we want to press it because we know that something will happen.This is true in most cases，for example，on a doorbell.But some buttons are actually fake(假的)，like the “close”button on a lift. Many people are in the habit of pressing the“close”button because they dont have the patience to wait.But lifts“close” buttons are a plete trick，at least in the US—the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press. It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US，making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter safely.Only repair workers can use the buttons to speed up the doorclosing process if they have special keys. But to normal lift riders，the buttons arent pletely useless.According to psychologists，fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control. “A sense of control is very important.It reduces stress and increases wellbeing，”said Ellen J．Langer，a psychology professor at Harvard University.Experts also added that a lot of buttons that dont do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose. For example，pedestrian crosswalk buttons dont live up to their names either.Pressing them used to help make the traffic signals change faster，but that was before putercontrolled traffic signals were introduced. But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little“white lies”，they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close，it is considered to be worth the effort. 1．What is the authors purpose in writing the text? A．To describe different fake buttons. B．To explore the functions of fake buttons. C．To analyze various habits of pushing buttons. D．To explain the disadvantages of fake buttons. 2．What can we learn about the“close”buttons on a lift in America? A．They work when people press them hard. B．They were designed for a sense of control. C．They never speed up the doorclosing process. D．They take the safety of the disabled into account. 3．What can we infer about pedestrian crosswalk buttons? A．They can make people feel better. B．They help puters work faster. C．They can control the traffic signals. D．They help pedestrians cross safely. 4．Which may be the best title for the passage? A．Buttons in the USA B．Buttons Always Lie C．Buttons May Not Work D．“Close”Buttons on Lifts 【解題導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了我們平時生活中所見到的按鈕可能是不起作用的。 【難句分析】Put psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”， they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort. 分析：這是一個復(fù)合句。句子主干為psychologists found it interesting。it為形式賓語，真正的賓語為that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句；when 引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句；because引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句。 譯文：但是心理學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)，有趣的是，甚至當(dāng)人們意識到這些“善意的謊言”時，他們?nèi)匀焕^續(xù)按那些虛假按鈕，因為只要最終門關(guān)了，那就被認(rèn)為是值得努力的。 1．B　考查推理判斷。通讀整篇文章可知，作者通過舉例子介紹了不同地點(diǎn)的虛假按鈕，其目的是探求這些虛假按鈕的功能。故選B。A項“描述不同的虛假按鈕”，C項“分析按按鈕的不同習(xí)慣”，D項“解釋虛假按鈕的弊端”。A、C、D三項在文中均有提及但不是整篇文章的目的，故排除。 2．D　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段第一句中的“making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter safely”可知，美國電梯里的“關(guān)閉”按鈕是為了確保殘疾人能安全地通過。故選D。 3．A　考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control”和第六段中的“For example，pedestrian crosswalk buttons dont live up to their names either”可知，人行橫道按鈕也沒有實(shí)現(xiàn)其功能，但可以讓人們感覺好一點(diǎn)，故選A。 4．C　考查標(biāo)題判斷。通讀全文內(nèi)容可知，本文主要講述了有些按鈕只是形式上的，而不具備真正的實(shí)際功能。故C項“按鈕可能不起作用”最符合文章主旨。故選C。 二、單項填空 1.While experts _______ delaying the retirement age, some citizens doubt whether they can _______ easily to the new age of workforce.
